There's parts of this I can I say I like. Rude is so campy and fun when he's selling and bumping for Roberts. Roberts throws some nice punches. Rude throwing himself across the ring when he accidentally goes near Damien was funny. Sadly, this is a 15 minute time limit draw that felt like 50 minutes. After the Roberts shine, Rude keeps Roberts grounded with a chin lock whilst Jesse and Gorilla go on about how they only have 15 minutes to work with. It's clear that they are just trying to wait out out the time limit. Roberts makes the most uninspired comeback after we get literal minutes of boring chants from the crowd. There's certainly been worse matches than this on a Wrestlemania, but I can't remember one that actively bored me as much as this did.
